A court in London held a hearing today, Friday, in the case involving three men linked to Ukraine accused of being involved in setting fires targeting two homes and a car associated with Prime Minister Keir Starmer in the British capital, scheduling their trial for April next year.
Over five days last month, the police responded to reports of fires at a house in North London owned by Starmer and another at a nearby property he lived in, as well as a fire in a car also owned by the British leader.
The prosecution charged Ukrainian Roman Lefterovych with setting three fires with intent to endanger life, and Ukrainians Petro Puchynok and Romanian-born in Ukraine Stanislav Karpiuk with conspiracy to commit arson.
The prosecution stated in previous sessions that the motives for the crimes are unclear.
Counterterrorism police led the investigation, but no charges were brought under terrorism laws or under the national security law related to anti-state activities.
